Comic book artist Marty Valdez is caught between a loving, nosy family and the white lies he’s told to keep them off his back. Dating Christian had been a disaster as the guy kept cheating until Marty finally had enough and ended their relationship. To keep his family from nagging him about his single status Marty invented Tim Drake, underwear model. With his sister’s impending wedding everyone expects Marty to bring Tim as his date.

FBI Special Agent Luke Myers has managed to infiltrate El Dragon’s cartel in San Antonio. A meeting with one of the cartel’s henchmen however doesn’t go so well. After barely escaping with his life Luke realizes that someone in the local FBI office has to be a mole.

Under less than ideal circumstances Luke and Marty meet and come to a wild agreement since both are desperate for help. The agent needs a place to lie low until he can figure out who he can trust. Marty needs someone to accompany him to his sister’s wedding. Their unlikely introduction doesn’t begin to cover what happens next.

Undercover Boyfriend tells an irresistible and utterly charming tale of secrets, white lies, and love at first sight. The main characters are refreshingly interesting and their chemistry is realistic. A slightly ludicrous plotline and the obvious secrets don’t detract in any way from the enjoyment of this story. A wacky love story perhaps, but Undercover Boyfriend is pure fun.
